Fiscally conservative yes.
But just like me...socially liberal.
And that describes my view. I'm a fiscal conservative all the way. And at the same time I don't think the govt. has any business telling me I can't grow a plant, or have sex with a prostitute, etc.
I actually think that the two party system could be on it's way out. Maybe not for a while...but it's a start.
The internet is opening up things for other parties now. We no longer have to just vote for the two guys we see on television. Hell, before the internet people didn't really even have a way to know about the existence of other parties.
I know I never would have known. But now that I can check them all out on the internet I have a choice. I'm thinking that as the internet keeps growing and television news becomes less and less relevant, other parties will finally have a chance to thrive.
